The gas generator (10) includes a projectile firing barrel (20) having a touch hole (26) on a side thereof for ignition of a propellant (24) within the barrel (20). Ignition of the propellant (24) drives a projectile (50) through the barrel (20) and into a rupturable seal (36) on a stored gas canister (32). After rupturing the seal (36), the projectile (50) is positively retained between a base en (21) of the barrel (20) and the gas canister (32).
